Colorful banners grace downtown Vergennes By Lou Varricchio
Vergennes — “What a difference a new banner makes,” said Amy Bodette Barr, marketing and development coordinator for the Vergennes Partnership (VP). Barr spearheaded the effort to dress up historic downtown Vergennes for the tourist season. The result—a colorful, eyecatching banner, was unfurled last week. Barr said that the Vergennes Partnership designed and purchased 10 new brightly colored banners to be displayed on Main street, “as part of its mission to enhance the economic viability and preserve the unique character of downtown Vergennes.” Coming up with the banner design and exceution was another indication of community spirit in the Little City. The banner was designed by Vergennes resident and graphic artist, Jory raphael. “This was a true team effort and one of those dream projects that went off without a hitch, thanks to a great group of volunteers and sponsors,” Barr noted. But whether thumbs up or thumbs down of a new promotional banner must ultimately depend upon the public’s emotional reaction. The eagle’s admittedly random, on-the-street questioning gathered some immediate, albeit unscientific results: Locals and visitors seem to like the new banner. “Wow, I love it,” said Little City resident Margaret rose Tindell. Tindell is a newcomer; she moved to the Vergennes area in
January, from Augusta, Maine. “Vergennes has amazing downtown gems. I think this design is a very nice, artsy addition to city streets.” Jim Langola was on Main street in Vergennes a day after the banners appeared. He was visting Little City friends from Boston, Mass. “Very cool,” he said. “What’s not to like about Vergennes, Vt.? I visit here several times a year. If I’d ever move to Vermont, it’d be Vergennes.” Michelle Tisbert, owner of everywear for everybody, a Partnership board member and chair of the Design Committee, coordinated the banner project; she had help from Mary Bargeil of strong House Inn, Karen Wisell and eliza Benton, also Partnership Board members, according to the Partnership’s Barr. “We were amazed by how quickly people offered to sponsor a banner,” said Tisbert. “We never even had to organize a real solicitation. This community is so generous.” The cost of all 10 banners was covered only hours after Tisbert presented the project at a recent City Council Meeting. The Vergennes Partnership publicly thanked the following banner sponsors: 802 social, Basin Harbor resort, Century 21 Jack Associates, everywear for everybody, Four season sotheby’s, gaines Insurance Agency, Jeff Fritz, shannon Haggett, and the strong House Inn. The cost of the banners (about $100 each) was covered by donations from residents and business owners, according to Barr.

CSJ celebrates 57th commencement
By James Lambert
rUTLAnD — sixty-two students passed across the stage at the College of st. Joseph’s 57th commencement ceremony on May 15. CsJ President Dr. richard Lloyd conferred degrees upon the graduates. Academic Dean Dr. Jonas Prida led the processional. rutland City Chief of Police Brian Kilcullen addressed students, their families, and faculty and staff in attendance, speaking of the importance of dreams, of giving back to the community, and the value of hard work. Kilcullen spoke of his grandfather, who as a young man immigrated to the United states from Ireland, of growing up in schenectady, nY, and of his ambition to be a spy during the Cold War era. The story of his grandparents is one that some of the graduates may relate to, he said. “I suspect some of you have had to make sacrifices to come to College of st. Joseph and were motivated by some of the things I’ve already mentioned. In some cases, you’ve come alone to a place far from home, a place you had never been, leaving your families, and perhaps leaving neighborhoods you had never left before,” said Kilcullen. “All this to fulfill your dreams and to be able to provide yourself and your families with the opportunity to experience things you’ve not been able to experience.” He spoke of a night that changed his outlook on life. six years into his police career, Kilcullen was working security
detail for the schenectady school District Athletic Hall of Fame at the induction of former local basketball players ed Catino and Pat riley. Kilcullen grew up admiring riley’s work, but it was Catino’s speech from that evening in 2000 that has stuck with him. Those were the words he shared with CsJ’s graduating class, words that had inspired him to seek promotional opportunities and to consider leading the rutland Police Department last fall. “Work hard. Do the right thing. everything else will fall into place,” said Kilcullen, remembering Catino’s speech. He encouraged graduates to do the same. “Those are the words I try to live by. Those words are what will allow you to fulfill your dreams. They have allowed me to fulfill mine,” he said. “You will experience failure along the way, but those words will remind you that there is hope, and that you will achieve whatever you hope to.”

From the Editor
Immigration and the 2016 I presidential campain
T
he issue of illegal immigration has Vermonters divided—the division spans everyone from college students, dairy farmers and retail clerks to journalists, construction workers and law enforcement officers, among others. Many in the agribusiness sector get defensive when this issue comes up in an editorial, blaming the problem not on their use of immigrant labor, but on the notion that Vermonters don’t want to do lowincome farm chores anymore. Also, farmers point the finger at co-op labor suppliers as being the responsible parties for vetting foreign farm laborers entering the green Mountain state. no matter, there’s lots of interesting (you may find disturbing) national news on the immigration front at this moment. We’re sure that the topic will be front and center—along with the ongoing loss of a variety of traditional American jobs—during the national election campaign of 2016. Thanks to the Federation of American Immigration reform for the following news tid bits that, we’re sure, few of you know about: •The Library of Congress has decided it will no longer use the term “illegal alien” although the legal term appears in U.s. Federal statutes. •The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHs) ruling makes it easier to employ cheap, foreign labor for sTeM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) jobs here, rather than hire American college graduates. •Faced with a surge of illegal border crossings, the Obama administration has responded by asking for a reduction in the number of U.s. Border Patrol agents.
•The Border Patrol has been instructed by the DHs that “catch and release” of illegal aliens will remain the Obama’s administration policy. •The Obama administration is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to lift an injunction preventing it from implementing twin immigrant amnesty programs: The Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals programs. The Court will rule on this issue sometime in June. •The State of Florida has stifled legal legislative efforts to outlaw its sanctuary city policies which protect illegal aliens. Florida senate Judiciary Committee Chair, sen. Miguel Diaz de la Portilla (D), has refused to take up any immigration bills. •The Obama administration wants illegal aliens who are granted “deferred action and work authorization” to be eligible for federal benefits such as social security, Medicare and disability payments. Former new Mexico U.s. rep. Dr. Heather Wilson (r) has been an observer of America’s current border war for a number of years. Today, Dr. Wilson is president of the south Dakota school of Mines and Technology in rapid City, but she still has insights about the immigration problems that she wrestled with while doing the people’s business under the U.s. Capitol dome between 1998 and 2009. This former Congresswoman, now turned college administrator, has spoken out about what many U.s. voters—especially those siding with the presumptive gOP presidential candidate—believe in their hearts and minds: “I support legal immigration,” Dr. Wilson said. “(But) I don’t support amnesty because it is not fair to people standing in line at consulates around the world.” The Eagle

Publisher’s Column
Decree by pen
n a short two week span President Obama has enacted two new laws without any representation from we the people. When elected, Mr Obama promised to fundamentally transform the nation. With only a few months left in office, it appears he is pulling out all the stops to finish what he started. Last week he mandated that all schools in this country no longer consider their stuDan Alexander dents as “boys” or “girls” but instead they are Thoughts from now gender neutral. schools are prohibited from making any inquiry to ensure that stuBehind the Pressline dent’s genitals play no role at all in anything, including which bathroom, locker room or shower they choose to make use of. Administrators can’t ask for any medical documentation, treatment information, or identification, as that would violate someone’s privacy. This directive will go a long way to helping the estimated 0.3% of our population who have an issue identifying the gender body they were born with versus the gender they identify with. If any of the 99.7% of the population have an issue with these new rules or feel uncomfortable in anyway they are the ones with a serious problem and are likely to be labeled as “intolerant” or a “transgenderphobic”. One last thing on this subject; failure to comply with the new ruling and the taxes we all paid to the federal government will no longer be coming back to our school district since we can’t accept that one’s gender is now pure choice. new week - - new decree, effective December1st, if you earn less than $913 per week you are no longer a salaried professional. You are now an hourly employee eligible for overtime. Additionally, unless you earn $134,004 per year you are no longer exempt to work freely as a highly-compensated-employee, free to work as many hours as you choose without Big Brother government having some say. I have always worked long hours, not because anyone forced me, but because I wanted to excel at whatever job I was doing. Perhaps like many of you I was taught long ago work ethic was an important fact of life. I’ve always practiced the old adage “Hard work beats talent, when talent doesn’t work hard”. You see I’ve never considered myself very gifted with natural talent. In school grades, sports or at work, I am proud to say I’ve gotten ahead by working harder and putting in the extra time to become successful. I strive on that approach and I know many others who feel the same way. But now, with the wave of Mr. Obama’s pen, generations will be told, sorry you can’t do that. This country was born out of a pioneering spirit. I’ve often wondered if I lived in another time would I have been brave enough to set out over the ocean to come to America or travel west with my family in a covered wagon risking life itself for the promised opportunity? Just as our children are being physiologically neutered in school, our workforce is being told to step off the gas. America needs to accept just a few more of these rules to completely defeat the American entrepreneurial spirit while leaving us dazed and confused. How can we compete in a global economy when the hands of our workforce are tied? Dan Alexander is associate publisher of New Market Press. He may be reached at dan@newmarketpressvt.com

“America’s Moses” was Vermonter first Part 1: Mormonism’s mighty lion, Brigham Young By Lou Varricchio
Assuming the sobriquets of “America’s Moses” and the “Lion of the Lord” may sound like an awesome burden to bear, but bigger-than-life Vermonter Brigham Young—man of god, carpenter, blacksmith, missionary, pioneer, temple builder, educator, colonizer, sometimes brawler, Mason, prisoner, second leader of the LDs, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day saints, and first governor of Utah Territory—had broad shoulders even mythical Atlas would have envied. Born in 1801, in rural Whitingham, Vt., located near the Massachusetts state line, Brigham Young was the son of farmers John Young and Abigail (Howe) Young. Life on the Young farm was a struggle, but the family was hard-working and steadfast in its spiritual convictions. According to LDs Church History, Brigham’s parents farmed 50 acres in Whitingham after they moved to a cabin there early in 1801. seven children kept John and Abigail busy, but it also provided hands around the homestead for chores. The future Mormon leader was born in the family cabin on June 1, 1801. The locale where the Young family cabin once stood is on simpson Hill. And while the cabin has disappeared, a marker stands at the exact site of the American prophet’s birthplace. As a teen, Brigham began a career as a travelling carpenter and blacksmith, displaying other trade skills, as well. While a pious Christian Methodist until his mid 20s, Brigham’s first encounter with the Book of Mormon had an everlasting effect on his personal and public life. Associated with Joseph smith, another Vermonter and the founder of the LDs Church, the Book of Mormon provided comfort and answers for the young Brigham. However, this future church leader and pioneer didn’t officially convert to Mormonism until 1832.
An early 19th-century homestead evocative of the Simpson Hill cabin in Whitingham, Vt., where “America’s Moses” Brigham Young was born in 1801.
Brigham Young began his married life—of which 55 wives would be bonded to him—in 1824. Miriam Angeline Works was wife no. 1. Ironically, she died the same year Brigham became a LDs member leaving behind two children for her husband to parent. As a new member of the LDs Church, Brigham assumed the expected role of missionary, a calling which he took seriously and which led him along bumpy roads from Vermont to Canada, and back. Becoming ever more involved with the church’s functioning, Brigham eventually joined fellow Mormons in a move west—to Ohio. There, along with fellow Vermonter Joseph smith, he helped settle the early Mormon community of Kirtland. Continued in June. Note: Special thanks to the Whitingham Free Public Library and the staff of the Encyclopedia of Mormonism.

PredictIt is a money binary-options prediction market that tests voters knowledge of political events by letting them buy and trade shares. “In Kentucky, the two candidates will likely split the 55 delegates up for grabs,” according to a reuters news report. “In Oregon, sanders will take only a handful more of the 61 delegates that were awarded. Clinton’s sizeable lead in delegates means it is likely she will eventually be her party’s nominee, but she remains more than 100 delegates short of sealing the deal.” According to news statement by PredictIt, online traders had anticipated the sanders Oregon win and former a Kentucky for Clinton—what they got wrong was how close the race in Kentucky proved to be. In PredictIt’s Oregon market, “sanders shares had been trading at 80 cents and in Kentucky, Clinton shares had been trading at 62 cents. “ There are a total of 55 Democrat delegates in Kentucky and 61 in Oregon.

The 2016 Vermont Legislature: A post-mortem Ethan Allen Institute Report
T
he 2016 legislative session is now history, and it’s worthwhile to assess its production. My criteria include preserving fiscal responsibility, advancing liberty, limiting government, and thwarting various hungry special interests. The basic facts are readily available online. First, the legislature managed to balance the FY2017 general Fund budget, once again by raising taxes and fees by $28 million. Wary of any obvious tax and fee increases in election year, the tax committees found a convenient target – the mutual fund industry, almost entirely inhabited by out of staters. Hitting it up for $20.8 million closed most of the gap, without arousing Vermont taxpayers. gov. shumlin had mounted a campaign to tax 1,200 doctors and dentists in independent practice, to extract more Medicaid money from Washington. That didn’t fly. nor did a House-proposed increase in the employer tax to finance Medicaid, or a bank franchise tax increase. The legislature also faithfully transferred the formula-required $306 million to the education Fund. Perhaps most importantly, the legislature backed off the VPIrg proposal to combat “climate change” by levying a hefty carbon tax on home heating oil, gasoline, diesel, natural gas and propane. Despite a long list of endorsers of the idea – the usual suspects – many legislators (including some Democrats) didn’t want to go into an election having voted to extract $500 million from Vermont consumers in its tenth year. The carbon tax proposal promised to return 90 percent of the revenues to selected taxpayers after the renewable energy and weatherization interests skimmed off the top ten percent as a “societal benefit”. This unbelievable promise is reminiscent of President Obama’s promise, “if you like your health insurance plan, you can keep it.” The VPIrg-led “energy Independent Vermont” coalition got more of its nose into the tent by getting an increase in gross fuel receipts taxes to raise another $2.9 million for “weatherization”. The coalition – now demanding “pollution pricing”, the latest euphemism for “carbon tax” - promises to come roaring back in 2017, so we haven’t heard the last of this bad idea. One brave little step was the privatizing of the risk management office that determines workers compensation claims. This will save $500,000.How this got through over the frantic opposition of the Vermont state employees Association is just
short of miraculous. It is a welcome exception to the VseA maxim that “no matter how much privatization might save the taxpayers, none of it is ever acceptable.” One of gov. shumlin’s final bright ideas was to have state government open a college savings account for all children born in Vermont, rich and poor alike, and find $250 to fund each of them. The argument: “Why should this responsibility be left to Mom and Dad, when our state government is ready and eager to hit up taxpayers for $250 a pop to get things moving?” The legislators, to their credit, didn’t buy it. The solons passed an energy siting bill that required towns upset by wind and solar impacts to buy into the state’s planning to force us to achieve “90% renewable energy by 2050” . In return for hugging the octopus, a concerned town would win “substantial deference” for its town plan before the prorenewable and lawyer-intensive Public service Board. The $300,000 promised to towns to adopt state-approved plans somehow disappeared from the appropriations bill. Passage of the siting bill will prove to be an illusory triumph for towns and citizens. The 2015 education consolidation bill (Act 46) seriously threatens to exterminate school choice in Vermont’s 90 tuition towns. The education establishment, led in the House by speaker shap smith and education Chair David sharpe, stifled efforts by (mostly) republicans to find a way to rescue parental choice within the new Unified Districts. Both parties have now accepted “strict cost containment’ – holding down school property tax rates by manipulating state caps and penalties until all school districts toe the state’s line. This is precisely what critics of Act 60 in 1997 said would happen. Farewell, local control. The health care “reform” bill groped about looking for a way to solve the chronic failure called Vermont Health Connect, awarded a further overdose of regulatory power to the green Mountain Care Board, and shelled out another $100,000 to pay for a recurring study of single payer on the installment plan. A bill to make life easier and more predictable for independent contractors – reported 11-0 from the House Commerce and economic Development Committee - disappeared due to the usual union opposition. Two small bright spots: the legislature voted to protect the Vermont Association of snow Travelers from negligence claims arising from accidents on their snowmobile trails. Also, it turned its back on a bunch of gun control bills despite
lavish lobbying by the Bloomberg-financed gun control lobby. From the standpoint of the past five years, the money committees commendably produced a balanced budget with only a small infusion of new tax dollars. From the standpoint of what needs to be done – to rationalize health care, expand parental choice in education, and get the renewable industrial complex’s nose out of the trough – well, there’s always next year, with a new governor. John McClaughry is vice president of the Ethan Allen Institute (www.ethanallen.org).

Route 125 paving begins in Hancock Summer construction From News & Staff Reports
HAnCOCK — The Hancock paving project is underway along route 125, from mile marker .767 east for approximately 6.5 miles, to the intersection of routes 125 and 100 in the Town of Hancock in Addison County. natalie Boyle spokesperson for greenman-Pedersen, Inc., the firm managing the reclamation project underway between Middlebury and Hancock, reported that, “Work to be performed includes cold planing, reclaiming, correcting super elevation deficiencies, paving, pavement markings, guardrail and drainage improvements.” Crews worked on fine grading last week from the beginning of the project (Middlebury side) to about 2 miles over the crest of the hill heading into Hancock. The road is dirt and gravel, and although crews continue to maintain the road surface, there are areas that have the “washboard effect” due to the steep grade of the road. Crews are scheduled to continue the process of placing dry cement in the sub-surface of the roadway throughout the week. Placing of cement may take several weeks. The purpose of this process is to create a solid foundation for the road surface. Crews have begun working on the roadway in the village
of Hancock. Crews are currently excavating down a couple of feet, placing fabric, then will add dense graded stone, and then fine graded stone in an effort to prevent potholes and heaving in the future. Crews are scheduled to continue this work throughout the week. During the excavation of the road, the difference in elevation between residence/business driveways and the road may be as much as 2 feet. Crews have extra material on hand in the event of an emergency to ensure that owners can access their property. Travel caution Travel on route 125 within the project limits will continue to be on a loose gravel surface for some time. Drivers are reminded that it is imperative to remain in the lane they were directed to until they come to another traffic control person at the other end of the active construction zone. Often there are workers and equipment throughout the active construction zone that motorists cannot see and are unaware of. switching travel lanes while in the active construction zone is hazardous both to those working and to the motorist. At times the length of the active work zone can seem very long. Please stay in the lane traffic control has placed you in until you arrive at the other end of the active work zone. You will be aware that you have left the active work zone as you pass the second flagger holding traffic at the other end. Travel delays reclaim, shoulder and excavation operations will require lane closures and alternating one way traffic around the construction packages. Traffic control personnel will be present to assist in maintaining traffic flow. Motorists should anticipate traffic delays while traveling through the project and plan accordingly. Please allow for extra time in your travel plans.
Motorcycles and bicycles greenman-Pedersen reported that there is the potential hazard for bicyclists and motorcyclists along this route, and as a result of the unsuitability of road surface for travel by bicycle, it is strongly recommended that cyclists find an alternate route of travel until crews have paved the road surface within the project limits. Drivers are warned to exercise extreme caution on granular surfaced roadways in a work zone. Punctured tires and windshield damage could occur if material flies up from the surface of the road. Maintain a safe distance between vehicles and obey the speed limit. For additional information regarding the construction project occurring in Hancock this summer please visit to the Facebook page entitled “VTrans rutland region Construction Contracts”.
The Hancock paving project is underway along Route 125, from mile marker .767 east for approximately 6.5 miles, to the intersection of Routes 125 and 100 in the Town of Hancock in Addison County.

every year since the report first published in 2008. (The ranking coincides with the ascendency of Democrat majority rule and fiscal policy making in Montplier.) rich states, Poor states offers two main rankings: an economic performance rank and an economic outlook rank. The economic performance rating looks backwards, grading a state’s 10-year performance based on state gross domestic product, absolute domestic migration and non-farm payroll employment. Vermont ranks 39th out of 50 states on economic performance. The economic outlook ranking, in contrast, is a forwardlooking forecast based on variables such as property tax burden and marginal personal and corporate income tax rates, as well minimum wages and average workers’ compensation costs. According to the report’s authors, states that tax less on activities such as working and investing, and spend less on income transfer programs, experience higher growth rates. As seen in the chart, Vermont’s poor economic outlook rating is owed to multiple factors. Vermont’s property tax burden is $52.35 per $1,000 of personal income, earning a 48 ranking out of 50 states. The figure is up from $50.32 in the prior year. Vermont rich states, Poor states economic OutlookPersonal income tax progressivity, at $29.59 per $1,000 of income, earned a ranking of 49. The figure is up from $28.69 in the prior year. Vermont’s top marginal corporate income tax rate is 8.5o percent, the 38th worst among the states. Its top marginal personal income tax rate, 8.95 percent, is 44th in the nation. recently legislated tax changes in Vermont between 2014 and 2015 amounted to $2.62 per $1,000 of personal income, earning a ranking of 46. The state’s minimum wage of $9.60 is the sixth most costly in the nation, and is set to increase to $10.50 in January 2018. The federal minimum wage is $7.25. Vermont also has a high number of public employees relative to its population, according to the report. The state has 636.8 public employees per every 10,000 residents. Only four states have a higher ratio. In the economic performance category, the report’s backward-looking measure, Vermont ranks 39th out of 50 states. Over the past 10 years, the state ranked 43rd in state gross domestic product, 28th on absolute domestic migration and 38th in non-farm payroll. The report’s scorecard shows Vermont’s trends in those categories. While gov. Peter shumlin (D) hasn’t championed policies that would improve Vermont’s economic competitiveness ranking, governors in “rich states” use the report as a guide-

Quenneville opens Devil’s Bowl title defense with victory By Justin St. Louis
rUTLAnD — Vince Quenneville Jr. showed a good opening night crowd that he never missed a beat over the winter at Devil’s Bowl speedway on May 21. The Brandon speedster and defending Asphalt Track champion ran to a dominant win in the Bond Auto Parts sportsman Modified division to open the 50th season of racing at the rutland County facility. Other winners in nAsCAr Whelen All-American series (nWAAs) action included Josh Masterson, scott Fitzgerald, and rookie Zach Wood. Quenneville left little doubt during the 50-lap lid-lifter, and was fortunate to start on the outside of the front row by virtue of random draw. He had to endure only a single restart, and quickly stretched out to a big lead and a relatively easy win. As fast as he was, Quenneville’s biggest challenge came from his own car, which was quick on the stopwatch but a monster to handle. “The car was really tight entering the corners, so I had to compensate for it and drive harder to make the back end loose and help me rotate in the center of the turns,” Quenneville said. “It was a lot of work inside the car, but it was a lot of fun.” A red-hot battle for second place between Jason Durgan of Morrisonville, n.Y., and Charlton, n.Y.’s ron Proctor was interrupted when a lapped car spun off the track and brought out the yellow flag. A restart was called off by race control and the re-cross was undone, therefore giving Durgan second place in the restart running order. He held on to keep the spot for the balance of the race, while a disappointed Proctor settled for third. Joey roberts finished fourth with Jackie Brown Jr. fifth in his first start on the Asphalt Track at Devil’s Bowl. Josh Masterson of Bristol, practically mirrored Quenneville’s performance in the 40-lap feature for the Central Vermont Motorcycles Late Model division. The defending champion started from the outside pole and survived a lone restart for the opening-night win. Veteran racer Jamie Aube of north Ferrisburgh gave chase in the final laps but was unable to reel the leader in and took the runner-up spot. robert Bryant Jr. of Brooklyn, Conn., won a hard-fought battle with steve Miller for third place. Miller was fourth with Bill Donahue fifth. scott Fitzgerald of West rutland made his large cheering section happy with a victory in the 20-lap rosen & Berger Auto recyclers renegade feature. Fitzgerald drove what he called a “perfect” racecar to his third career win ahead
of a charging Jim McKiernan of Moriah Center, n.Y. Matt Monaghan, Austin McKiernan, and Bill Burlingame completed the top five. Winners of the “Best Appearing Car” awards from last week’s fan festival in Downtown rutland were revealed; Durgan’s red-and-yellow no. 17 car topped the sportsman Modifieds, Bryant’s black-and-blue no. 3rB Chevrolet won the
Late Model class, Jimmy Bushey’s “Purple rain” no. 11 car won in the renegade division, and Messier’s white-and-green no. 88X car was the Mini stock winner. The Asphalt Track resumes on May 28 with the first-ever “Yorkmont Memorial Day 5000” featuring a $5,000 cash prize to a fan, as well as nWAAs action in all four divisions, an enduro series event, and a holiday fireworks show.

Panthers heading to the Final Four From College News Reports
MIDDLeBUrY – The Middlebury College women’s lacrosse team advanced to the nCAA final four for the 18th time after a 13-9 win over no. 4 gettysburg (18-3) May 22 in the nCAA regional Finals on Kohn Field. The fifth-ranked Midd Panthers (20-1), which set a program record for victories in a season, will take on Cortland state in an nCAA semifinal game on May 28 in Philadelphia. The other national semifinal features Franklin & Marshall against Trinity. Middlebury netted the first goal of the game when Laurel Pascal scored in transition after taking a feed from Chrissy ritter just 2:56 into the contest. The Bullets tied the game at 1-1 on a tally by Abby Baigelman, while Amanda Borucki put the guests in front at the 6:28 mark on a free-position attempt. Bridget Instrum used a good individual effort to split a pair of Bullet defenders to pull the Panthers even at 2-2, but gettysburg scored a pair of goals in 28 seconds for a lead 4-2. Maggie Welsh made it a one-goal lead, while emily Tropsa sent a low shot on a free-position attempt for a two-goal advantage. Middlebury answered with a six-goal run that catapulted the hosts into an 8-4 advantage. ritter started the string of goals with a shot from the top of the crease after taking a nice pass from Instrum. Hollis Perticone converted a feed from Mary O’Connell to tie the game at 4-4 with 8:46 left in the half. Alli sciarretta bounced a shot in to put the hosts up 5-4 and Instrum added another goal with a successful free-position attempt. Panther goalie Katie Mandigo came up with a key save with
4:12 on the clock, dropping down to stop a low shot on a freeposition attempt by Borucki. On the ensuing possession, Megan griffin whistled a left-handed shot into the back of the net for a 7-4 lead. The hosts won the draw control and Pascal capped the run with a diving quick-stick tally on a feed from griffin. The Bullets added a goal from Baigelman in the final minute of the half, leaving Middlebury with an 8-5 lead at the break. The Panthers pushed the margin to five goals (10-5), scoring twice in just over a minute to open the second. The first goal was set up a big defensive play by evie Keating when she drew a charge to give Middlebury possession. griffin scored in transition with an assist from ritter, while Instrum ripped a free-position shot into the top-right corner of the net. The hosts took their biggest lead of the game with 21:08 left when Pascal netted her third goal of the game, this time using a quick stick as she was falling to the ground after a dish from griffin. The Bullets staged a rally with Katie Willis opening a threegoal run, bouncing in a free-position shot. gettysburg’s next two goals came while it had a player serving a penalty, as Willis netted the first and Katie Landry the second. The run by the Bullets closed the gap to 11-8 with 13:20 remaining in regulation. Instrum made pushed the difference back to four goals with an over-the-shoulder shot cutting to the goal. The Panthers then came up with another big defensive play minutes later when Alex White knocked down a shot by Borucki that was headed toward the back of the net. gettysburg got back to within 12-9 on Willis’ third goal of the game, but the Panthers closed out the scoring with 5:15 left in regulation with griffin leaving her feet to put a shot over goalie
The fifth-ranked Midd Panthers (20-1), which set a program record for victories in a season, will take on Cortland State in an NCAA semifinal game on May 28 in Philadelphia. The other national semifinal features Franklin & Marshall against Trinity
Bailey Pilder. The hosts controlled the ball for a majority of the remaining clock, securing a return trip to the national semifinals. Instrum and griffin each finished with five points, while Pascal tallied three times. Jessie Yorke had a steady game on defense with three ground balls and two caused turnovers. Mandigo was strong again, earning her 10th-straight decision with eight saves. Willis paced the Bullets with three goal, while Baigelman scored twice and assisted on two others. Caroline Jaeger led all players with four draw controls, while Christina Wright collected three ground balls. shannon Keeler played the first 38:52 of the game and had four saves, while Pilder had two stops the rest of the way.
